5.5 years ago I was planning what my next drink would be (when I got out of jail), and then I had a choice (housing or homeless) and I kept the drink away for another couple months. The day I was "free" I actually stopped at a liqour store and went inside.
It was here that the previous 20 years all rolled back in one big memory. The blackouts, the fights, my kids crying, the diarrhea, the vomiting, the stomach pains, the looks from my family, the wheelchair, the walker, the cane, the drunken gait I had acquired from PN. I "stumbled" back outside (sober) and I told myself I would re-evaluate at one year....
That was YEARS ago
